I know this isn't the place to ask probably - please kindly consider that I am artist that is completely not into all that technical stuff - linux with its many distributions, compilations - gives me shivers lol. Any ideas when new version of MyPaint will show up for Windows? I am DAILY checking their website but there is virtually no new information. I wish everybody would be that informative as Blender devs.. Appreciate answer.

@Nezumi : Truely , I have no idea about Windows build ; I even don't know who is the volonteer who packed Mypaint for Windows the first times, and if he would continue it. I guess when a official Mypaint 1.0 will be released , the packagers will convert this version.
And don't be affraid about Linux terminal codes :) 3 lines to copy paste in a text console are easier for me than download a installer on internet, save it, open it , click next next next on the pop-up windows and figure out where the stuff get installed. This is just about way to do it. You should try ;)

@Andre´ : If you want to clean the version installed with my previous guide, just open a nautilus with admin rights ( gksudo nautilus ) , then go to the folder at the root folder of the system , then in , /usr/local ; in the subfolder 'bin' it should have a mypaint to delete as well as in 'lib' and 'share'. That's suffisent ;) be just sure to don't delete other folders or program :)

@Milad
This is from the latest build so, afaik, it is not so much about platform but rather that in Linux is just easier to get it (ppa, easy way to pull git, etc...). I'm sure it can be had in windows, but one would need to compile it. And I know squat about that.

I just moved up from Mint 11 to 12, got its such a foresaken disaster O_o Good thing Mate exists, else I wouldn't know what to do.

You should also mention that the cleans up stuff itself even after an interruption of some sort (eg: shutdown). My laptop ran out of battery (Mate doesn't have power indicators, by default) and it was already an hour into the installation process; on the next start I didn't need to repair much myself, the script did everything for me ^_^

@Shnatsel : Hey Shnatsel, this is a very good news. I'm planning to centralise a page on my 'tutorial' with all useful ppa. I'll add your. I'll note it on my to-do , I hope I can make it next month. Thanks !

FYI...There is also a Windows build for MyPaint 1.2 which I have been playing with for a couple of weeks. It is very light weight ir regards to resources and I haven't had any crashes at all. The features I very nice.
